I would like it in black maybe, otherwise i would prefer a stock maybe massaged a bit. But how much work would it be to remove?

I'd say mess with the door then, it just sweeps into the door then nothing...then it flies back out again. It's fine, but it won't be as easy to squeeze into parking spaces than in a stock AE86~

But even so dude, it's your 8-6, you can mess with it in any way you want, and it surely stands out more than a regular 8-6 that's for sure! :mrgreen: The question is do you really like it? Do you think the pros in it outweigh the cons? I think it should be whatever you want it to be man.

I'd like to know where you bought that kit. From what I understand, that car was purchased from Signal Auto here in the USA, and brought to Japan. The owner decided to get a one-off JGTC inspired widebody kit custom made. It closely resembles the BP/Kraft Trueno they ran in GT300 years ago.

Please provide pictures. I'd be interested to see who made it and the build quality.

I remember that car as well. The blue car above look heavily photoshopped.

I forgot who built it but when i bought the car, the body kit came with it. Signal Auto rings a bell though. Ill post up better angles of the body later on.

Muuuuch better pics. It definitely looks like the one I was thinking of. I am pretty sure he had everything custom made. Are the fenders metal?

Keep the wide fenders. Hella rare. Good quality. Dope look. If you want stock fenders, trade.shells with me.

It could look really cool if u made a vent in the fronts. Looks better than that blue one u posted.

Although some wider wheels would really perfect it i think. Nice car
